Keyboard Tracks for 1984 and or Jump ?


I didn't know quite where to post this request, but since i had seen a similar thread floating around here i decide perhaps i should do the same. I've been wanting to cover this song live for a while now. It's pretty popular, recognisable to say the least and if sung to new ears it's exciting none the less. So, i was wondering if anyone knew where i could find simply the backing keyboard track for this. I know there exists at least one, as of now Van Halen is using one too lol.

Any help or advice would greatly appreciated!!!

Do a search on the net, I've seen a video where someone teaches you step by step how to play it.

I don't have anyone on keyboards unfortunately. I've seen it done and it's not too hard, but i'd need to get an old school syntho. Forget the name, but i've seen em' too. Was hoping i could just play the track on the pa instead.

I want something more authentic than that. For a while i was plucking harmonics on the third position and overdriving and diving into Running with the Devil, but now i have Mp3 synth parts which i conveniently plugged in my PA. The outcome is much more professional and i take pride in the extra mile i do to make sure i come off as organized. You'll rarely see us play a gig and run into any problems. We play our practices like fire drills. We know what to do in emergencies .

So i am assuming that this is going to be difficult to find :S ?

I have. I found some backing tracks, but they had drums and bass etc, i was really looking for just the keyboards. OH and plus i have trouble searching using the words "Keyboard" "backing" "track" "1984" cause all i get in my searches are stupid references and stories and people moaning about the mess up at one of the Van Halen concerts where the keyboard track was off by 1.5 semitones or something.

Damn :S
